Tree Tuesday - Weeping Willows
Weeping willows are known for their ground-sweeping branches and long, slender leaves. I saw these beautiful weeping willows around a small pond in Long Island, New York. Aren't they gorgeous?

For me trees are magical. I admire every single tree. I am an artist and my imagination is at work 24/7. These willow trees remind me of childhood stories...

... Willow trees are young women, very beautiful, but very sensitive and fragile. They need to be re-assured of their beauty. They need to be surrounded by friends who adore them. They need to be kissed by sun and moon rays. When they can't get all or any of these, they get very sad and they cry and cry. 

Only Fairies can help them feel better. Nobody else can. 

When a willow tree cries, fairies come to comfort her. They fly around in circles until they find the willow's ears, which are well hidden under the leaves. Then they whisper softly and ask the willow what's wrong. The willow will tell the fairy why is she crying. If there is not enough sunshine, the fairly will explain the willow how to move her leaves, so she can get all the warmth she needs. If there are no birds nesting in the willow's branches, the fairy will spread the word and many birds will come.

Then the willow stops crying. The fairies sing and dance and play with their magic wands and dust. What a delightful scenery! 

<center><h3>I love Weeping Willows, don't you?</h3></center>

Willows are definitely beautiful. But what's more beautiful is your imagination and the way you described them. Absolutely lovely.

beautiful <3 My son is called willow (not after the weeping one, though, maybe the corkscrew willow for his curly hair.. ;) )
The weeping willow is definitely sensitive and feminine

Storytelling and fiction makes me almost as happy as playing with the wire and creating weird wire sculptures. What’s your hobby?

I really like playing board games and card games.  My family's favorite game at this time is called Dominion.  I also enjoy working on digital projects.   My Steem blog definitely fills my heart and allows me to create.

When I grew up, my neighbor had a huge weeping willow tree and I remember its' beauty of course, but what really stays with me was the sound it made when the wind blew through it on a quiet summer day.  The *swoosh* of those magnificent limbs often pop in my head when I'm now swinging in my hammock.  Funny what memories pop up with sights, sounds and smells, isn't it?! :)  Thank you for this one!
